sorry bout the offtopic, but INDY COLTS FTW!, anyway, brilliant tut, well written, and majorly effective result!

easy mistake to make. i learned the same way u did.

uncheck MAINTAIN ASPECT RATIO. this should allow u to resize at will.

id sepia it, but, your opinion is your opinion, and it's your pic.

agreed. when i said, "you could make a pineapple out of this," i didnt actually mean,"go and make a pineapple" but woah. youve inspired me to go make something. like a pineapple.

yep. less definitely. it looks great!

well after all that making out, the leaf is not bent, or even curved!? wow. thats subtle. it looks wonderful goon. good job

restart your PDN, it has to refresh.

yes... uh huh... :oops:

*agrees* pineapple leaves are going brilliantly. can wait to see the end. you should make a tut on it when you're finished (or at least drop me how u did it)

those leaves should be good I chopped those from the actual picture inspiration piece.! I'm going to draw my own before this is considered finished. I'm still in the design stage on this one. jury is out on if this piece makes it beyond the trash. i noticed about the second one. i meant the first one. lol.

oma, i absolutely LOVE the pineapple so far. its awesome the background is great, the leaves are good, yeah the skin needs a bit o' work, but its all way better than what i could do! nice job!

boltbait, you have so many awesome effects, that its hard to make a good tut WITHOUT using one or more of your effects... i am very thankful.

thanks expired, was about to say that. oh yeah, expired, stop being so good. well, dont stop, keep going, but you know what i mean. i love your audio jungle entries, and all the rest of it too. if only i was a 50th of your skill, id be awesome !

LFC, thats awesome! looks very realistic!

right click (if your primary is black and your secondary is white) and drag from the centre, outwards.

hope that's not a hint :!: :wink: think of the shapes pineapple = oval pineapple skin= a lot of little ovals within the main one, color = yellowish brown (hint I always try to use 4 shades within the same color family. ) you have to have lots of texture what gives nubby? rough? use releif ? ahh, when you made those leaves I see you missed the little note to deselect before moving the leaves around on the next layer, that is most likely why the tips look like they are moved over a bit from the original. not sure what you did on the stem. just go back an try it withouth the leaves. draw line, wand outside line, control +i, add a layer, bevel selection. I can't tell for sure but you may have done the wand part wrong. aaah. so THATS why it didnt quite work. i did indeed miss that note to deselect. yeah, the stem went weird. lol. ill give it another go later.

thanks I think its the use of textures that makes it look real. Those push this button tuts are very valuable to learn what happens when I use this, they teach you the different functions of each control within a plug in. This just makes you apply the use of a plugin to something specific. I'll be watching for your picture. yeah. definitely the use of textures. nice use of gradient bars, would never have even crossed my mind. EDIT: took mine a different way. i kinda ruined the stem, but hey, i tried. its the best way to learn! could make pineapples out of this, if only i could find a way to make the body...

*gapes* oma, that's incredible! wow! it looks very much realistic, and it isnt a "just apply this effect then this then this" tutorial. wow! ill give it a go when i get back on a computer with PDN.

*gapes* i disappear from the "gallery" side of PDN forums, and.... it's incredible! the phone/ipods are amazing! keep it up! *aims to be as awesome as LFC4EVER*

ok. i'll sit tight, and wait, hopefully it will be done soon. (if at all) again, congrats on all the awesome works, an keep the awards coming! im sure you will!

expired, i dont know if this has actually been done, but can you make a tutorial on your sig/avatar? anyway, your gallery is awesome, congrats on the audio jungle results!

Thanks for the comments. If you have any suggestions please PM me. =] will do, ill play around with things and see what i get! if i do find anything, best way to pm it to you would be?

tHs, great "guide" so to speak, very effective, has taught me a lot, shall post a sig when i get the time to make one. i especially like the "frosted glass" effect.

instead of opening it, save it to the folder nstead
